Happy Kaba and the bad Kooshan

I am happy to say that Kaba has had a week of rest and is all better now. As for Kooshan he has had a few days of being bad, of late he likes to jump into the top draw in the bathroom. Kooshan gets in the draw and pushes the make-up and other stuff I have in the draw so he can squeeze into the back and then he just peers out as if he is saying “look at my new hiding space”.

Poor Kaba

Kaba has been a bit sick, he developed a sore on his back leg. This all came about from his obsession of licking his back leg after getting a bit itchy from some grass. Anyway he was off to the vet on Friday and the sore was cleaned up and he got some tablets to help with the healing. But that did not stop him from licking his leg so it was back into the vet to get the plastic hood for his head. So the weekend was spent trying to get him to eat and drink because he was off food and water and making sure he was ok. Kaba is starting to get better now and he should be all ok by the weekend.

Handmade Gifts

Don’t you just love handmade gifts? I sure do, now I’m not talking about designer handmade like what you get at a market or see online. I am talking about a different kind of handmade.

I little while back my little sister who is 7 years old made me two earrings, One day when I went over to my mums house I got a cute little package from my sister. The out side of this little handmade envelop had some writing on it reading “To Vicki Love Samantha” and it was filled with drawings of little hearts and kisses. Sam can’t spell my real name so she just shortened it. Anyway I opened up the little envelop and to my surprise there was two sets of earrings that she had made. I will have to say for a 7 year old she did a fantastic job with matching the beads and assembling the earrings together. So a big well done to my little sister it is always so nice when you get a little gift out of the blue which you know that a lot of love and effort has gone into it. I think these types of gifts are the best.

Do you have a cool handmade gift story? Would love to hear it.
